Casualties of war are very sad and unfortunite. But like all wars there are casualties. Including drug wars and Shawdow wars. Deep down we all know that it takes a few deaths to save many. Nobody has found a blood less way to save the world.

The overview is much different with boots to the ground in all decision making regarding Military action where life is concerned.

The war on Narcotics is exactly that, a war and more often than not today, the FARC and other organizations are formally equipped and our units are outnumbered, but given a prime directive. The decision making surrounding the prime directive has protocol and throughout history the protocol is a guide, not an absolute. Much as Bible verse is used. Its a guide.

Unfortunately, the Politics of the situation circumvents the actuality of the gains.

How many lives have been saved from drugs not reaching their destination?

All wars have acceptable overall colleratial damage and humans make mistakes.

People, if you really think that the CIA, FBI, Military branches and our Government do EVERYTHING CORRECT, you gotta wake up and smell the coffee. I spend 10 years flying our nations leaders around the world and I know for a fact, that, a whole lot of them, are not abiding by the laws, rules and regulations that are set for them to follow. This CIA incident is nothing new. Its been going on for years and its time that it comes out.

And people wonder WHY Americans don’t trust our own government agencies! I don’t even trust them enough to put my real name on this,obviously many others don’t either. If an agency can’t even follow the rules and regulations that it’s own wrote, how can they be expected to follow anything? They are above the law. I am thankful for the missionaries who take the risk to go to foreign lands to spread the word of our Lord Jesus Christ knowing that they don’t just have to look out for the foreign government trying to kill them, their own government may do the same as in this case.

Has no one been punished even after so many years later? This is disgusting. We can’t let the government control everything. More people need to be pissed off.

I mean, since you obviously censor comments expressing more than a token degree of anger over cavalier people who consider the murder of American citizens as dismissable “acceptable losses”, why not just go whole hog and say that the people who kill innocent americans should be shot down like dogs .… no matter who they work for.

Acceptable Losses?

I hope you, your wife, and/or children are next.

The missionaries, like all true missionaries know the risk of the foriegn field they endeavor to reach for the glory of the Lord Jesus Christ. Our loss is their gain in glory with the Lord, and they earned it in earnest, surely to receive the martyrs crown from the Lord. The issue is we are killing our own and hiding it, lying about it. Have we become the evil we claim to be against… I’d like to hear more about the CIA plane that ran out of fuel over Mexico being denied the usual pit stop for fuel. It alledgedly crash on the way to America and x tons of cocaine was on board…

Sir, For the greater good, a small loss is considered (to me) acceptable. If you can’t take a bloody nose, you shouldn’t be in the game!

“I will not let this matter rest.” Hoekstra. Of course not. He’s found something to do when he’s not joining his comrades to bankrupt the country with “discretionary” spending. Congressman, turn your attention to the critical issues President-Elect Obama and the Congress face now. In other words, quit stomping on ants while the elephants are running through the rose bushes.

There is the perception by both detractors and supporters that the CIA is a sleek and highly efficient organization –for better or worse. The reality is that the CIA is often a mass of bureaucracy like many other government agencies. For instance the time a CIA supervisor choked a subordinate and as a result they promoted the supervisor. Yes, that and other incidents like it have happened.
